4:32
The clocked glared back at me. 4:32 AM? I blinked. Are you sure? Did I totally sleep through my Mia feeding? Is the monitor on? *breathe in...breathe out...*
SHE DID IT! I was completely shocked...I hadn't felt this rested in a long time. She did it! Little Miss Mia actually slept through the night!
Ok, Erin. Calm down. You still have 28 precious minutes to enjoy sweet slumber before you have to face the day. Go back to sleep and don't spoil this moment!
Oh, how excited I was. My heart was pounding. I just couldn't be more proud of this moment - nor more thankful for a great night sleep.
How should we celebrate, I wonder...hmmmm... GO TO SLEEP, Erin! Now you only have 20 minutes.
Oh...beautiful sleep!
5:00
*Beep Beep Beep* Rise and shine, the alarm says, in it's own very annoying morning way.
Casey! Casey! Mia just slept through the night!
We both jumped out of bed. Tiptoed to her room. Ever so gently opened the squeakiest door in the neighborhood. There she was. Peaceful. Still breathing. Snuggly in her own little bed.
We smiled. Mouthed how cute she was. We are proud parents!
*Hugs to Mia Bella* Mommy and Daddy love you so much!

Wow! Good job Mia!! Maybe she will do that again tonight!!! ;)
It's amazing what sleep deprivation will make you celebrate, isn't it?? I remember counting the days until the 3 month mark because I had read that in a book--like that meant anything! :-) Congratulations!
What a beautiful post that bought a smile to my face. I remember that feeling. Waking up full of panic because for the first time in ages I slept uninterrupted. What a difference a "full" night of sleep makes.
Here's wishing you many more nights of uninterrupted sleep Erin. Way to go Mia!!
Love

Yay, Mia! It's so nice (a bit scary the first time), but soooooo much better! Enjoy your sleep!
Hooray for Mia!
Let this be the first of many!!!

PS: my alarm goes off at 6.30 and I already think that that is early...
